Opening her account with a strong finishing win at Doomben on Saturday was promising two year-old Sebring filly Candika from the Steven O’Dea stable.

A $100,000 Magic Millions purchase for Proven Thoroughbreds from the Kia Ora Stud draft, Candika looks a natural runner and connections are considering a tilt at the Magic Millions 2YO Classic in January.

She is the first winner for Danzero mare Divya, a three-quarter sister to Group II winner Astrodame and grand-daughter of Blue Diamond winner Midnight Fever
